point reyes getaway

finally, eugene's done with school for the year and i get a three-day weekend break from rotations. to celebrate? we went to point reyes to have some hiking/outdoors fun. we stayed at a really cute swedish bed and breakfast called lingonberry farm with yummy swedish eggs and swedish pancakes for breakfast. yum-my! saturday was a little gloomy, but that didn't stop us from heading outside. we climbed down (and up) the over 300 stairs to the point reyes lighthouse, hiked along the headlands to chimney rock, and strolled along the beach. the road to the chimney rock trailhead had no fences keeping the cows in, so they came right up to the car! we could've petted them if we wanted to...if we wanted to. then, when we got back to our bed and breakfast, a deer walked right underneath our patio! it was so sweet! on sunday, the sun FINALLY came out, so we headed on out to tomales bay and walked down to mcclures beach. all-in-all, it was a fun and relaxing weekend. can't wait to go back!

eugene...the frat boy!

eugene was inducted into quite a prestigious honors fraternity this past friday. for his artistic hand, crafty designs, and very high gpa (and a small fee), he became a member of ept. now...what in the world does ept stand for? think greek...not commercials.

before initiation, we had a pleasant lunch (vegetarian pasta again) at sfsu, yummy dessert, and hung out with eugene's classmates. then, all new initiates were lined up and slowly invited into the "initiation room." we non-ept peeps weren't allowed in. after all the ceremonial stuff was over, eugene was presented with a nice pin, certificate, and an extra thing to put on his resume. :)
